Instead of having to guess from the look of the outside, here is a picture of the Model T before the parts are installed. Brace yourself: it's baffling to us how some people think this speaker is anything other than a beast! That's a 1.5 inch thick front baffle and one pile of intricately positioned braces!

Thank you for the picture Ian; I tapped the Model T, I listened to it but I didn't think it has such a bracing system.I asked the nice people from Bryston to rise the volume level a bit, not crazy loud but loud enough for me: I think these speakers are phenomenal.
